Can’t stop, won’t stop using my Instant Pot! And apparently neither can you guys because so many of you have been enjoying The Paleo AIP Instant Pot Cookbook since it released a couple days ago. It includes over 140 AIP compliant and Paleo Instant Pot Recipes ranging from soups to BBQ Chicken and even desserts. 

I planned my meals this week from the cookbook and wanted to make a blog recipe for you too. One of my favorite recipes from the book, Swedish Meatballs with Mushroom Gravy, which I shared with you as a preview recipe.

You’re going to love this quick and easy Instant Pot Shredded Chicken with Almond Butter Satay too! The Almond Butter Satay sauce really flavors the basic shredded chicken which is also combined with fresh cilantro and green onions! I recommend serving it over cauliflower rice or with a light crunchy salad such as a jicama and carrot slaw!

I’ve used a variety of Instant Pot models – they are so affordable now – and they last years!
